We knew that President Obama was in town to help stump for Governor Quinn (you know, that election is tomorrow), but he didn’t let his political duties completely stop him from enjoying the food of his hometown. While he spent his birthday dinner with Oprah at Graham Elliot, this time he made a surprise visit to Topolobampo. Luckily, unlike Bayless’s visit to the White House, the chef was able to tweet to his heart’s content. According to Rick Bayless, the president made a reservation under a different name, and then arrived with an entourage, which included a Navy chef. At least thirteen vehicles arrived in front of the restaurant, shutting down Clark between Illinois and Hubbard. But what did he eat?
